Our Social and Community Impact
We believe in making a meaningful difference beyond recruitment. Over the years, we’ve proudly supported local charities, not-for-profit organisations and community initiatives across our home base of the East Midlands - from volunteering our time to raising funds and offering pro-bono recruitment services, giving back is at the heart of everything we do.
Our approach to corporate social responsibility (CSR) focuses on four key areas:
- Supporting local charities and not-for-profit organisations
- Providing pro-bono recruitment solutions
- Caring for our clients, candidates and team members
- Investing in the local economy
Community Recognition
We were proud to be shortlisted for the prestigious 2023 East Midlands Business Masters Awards in the Community Impact category. This recognition is a testament to Jane Harper's unwavering commitment to the community and the East Midlands.

Our Partnership with Operation Orphan
We are proud to partner with Operation Orphan, a remarkable charity dedicated to improving the lives of vulnerable children both locally and globally. Through their projects, they provide essential support to children in need, ensuring they have access to basic necessities, warmth, and hope for a brighter future. We’re proud to play a small part in their life-changing work - here’s just a few ways we help.
Cost of Living Relief
In 2024, we partnered with Forget-Me-Notts to support their Cost of Living Relief initiative by setting up a drop-off point in our Nottingham City Centre office.
Forget-Me-Notts is a UK-based project whose purpose is to empower local people and local businesses to support their social care system in meeting the practical emergency needs of the most vulnerable children in their local community, letting each child know they are not forgotten.
Visit our blog to learn more about this initiative and how you can help.
Forget-Me-Notts Christmas and Easter Collections
Every Christmas and Easter, we proudly support Operation Orphan with their Selection Box and Easter Egg Collections. These donations are distributed to children in the care system across the East Midlands, many of whom would otherwise go without gifts during these holidays. We've supported them for many years, and for very good reason!
Keep a Child Warm Project
As part of our partnership with Operation Orphan, our team regularly volunteers for their Keep a Child Warm Project.
Recently, we spent a day sorting and packing warm clothing, including winter coats, gloves, scarves, hats, socks and blankets. These packs are distributed to children living in extreme conditions - often as cold as -30°C - without basic necessities like central heating or adequate clothing.
